An assault on the senses . . .

Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season. It was a joyous Christmas celebration for our family but I am eager to get back to a more normal routine. Since our family celebrates the Day of the Epiphany (January 6) my Christmas tree is still up. :-( I hope to do that today but we got our first snowfall of the season and the kiddo wanted to play outside. :-)

My sb room is just a mess! When you first walk in your eyes don't know where to land. You are overwhelmed by the living room furniture, the tons of embellishments spread all over the tables and boxes of supplies that desperately need to be organized. It really is an attack on the senses!So over the course of the next few weeks I will be re-organizing my room. I will start by moving the living furniture back to the living room. The yellow chair and lamp in the photo below will go downstairs in the living. That box on the chair . . . so sad . . . that's the box I purchased when Pink Paislee had their warehouse sale MONTHS ago! Sigh!

My creative mess. This mess I don't mind as much since its a direct result of working on a few LOs. However, I am running out of desk space so it need to be organized. My ink station, for example, is cluttered by projects I never completed and expensive camera equipment that needs to be properly stored away.

This table is where I do all most of my scrapbooking. I am working on a few LOs of a trip I took to NYC back in 2007. As you can see . . . the table is full of papers and embellishments leaving very little space for my LO. ﻿

My 3rd six foot table is no better. Full of accessories that belong in the living room and unorganized supplies. Double sigh!﻿

So over the next few weeks I will be cleaning up and re-organizing my craft room. So that the job doesn't become overwhelming I will tackle as much possible 15 minutes at a time. I have much work ahead of me but I am eager to get it started.As always, thanks for stopping by . . . Yoli
